What's the difference between genus and squilla?

Genus


Definition:

  • (n.) A class of objects divided into several subordinate species; a class more extensive than a species; a precisely defined and exactly divided class; one of the five predicable conceptions, or sorts of terms.
  • (n.) An assemblage of species, having so many fundamental points of structure in common, that in the judgment of competent scientists, they may receive a common substantive name. A genus is not necessarily the lowest definable group of species, for it may often be divided into several subgenera. In proportion as its definition is exact, it is natural genus; if its definition can not be made clear, it is more or less an artificial genus.

Example Sentences:

  • (12) The reservosomes of Trypanosoma spp., sub-genus Schizotrypanum, could be differentiated from the multivesicular bodies of other trypanosomatids, since they lack true vesicles.
  • (13) Statistical analysis of 251 phylogenetically informative nucleotide positions rejects the "volvocine lineage" hypothesis, which postulates a monophyletic evolutionary progression from unicellular organisms (such as Chlamydomonas), through colonial organisms (e.g., Gonium, Pandorina, Eudorina, and Pleodorina) demonstrating increasing size, cell number, and tendency toward cellular differentiation, to multicellular organisms having fully differentiated somatic and reproductive cells (in the genus Volvox).

  • (20) This reduction was confined to strict anaerobes, mainly the genus Eubacterium and Bifidobacterium.

Squilla


Definition:

  • (n.) Any one of numerous stomapod crustaceans of the genus Squilla and allied genera. They make burrows in mud or beneath stones on the seashore. Called also mantis shrimp. See Illust. under Stomapoda.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) Transmitters of motoneurons in the stomatogastric ganglion (STG) of Squilla were identified by analyzing the excitatory neuromuscular properties of muscles in the posterior cardiac plate (pcp) and pyloric regions.
  • (2) Squilla mantis hemocyanin is composed of two hexameric subunits but has electron microscopic profiles different from other bis-hexameric hemocyanins, e.g.
  • (3) The findings are compared with those of related studies and their functional implications for the vision of Squilla are discussed.
  • (4) Proteins extracted from suboesophageal ganglia of Squilla mantis, an arthropod shown to be sensitive in vivo to opiates and to contain native opioid like peptide(s), were fractionated by gel filtration into three pools according to their molecular weight: A (Mr greater than 65,000), B (10,000 less than Mr less than 65,000) and C (Mr less than 10,000).

  • (7) The fine structure of the compound eye of adult specimens of Squilla mantis was investigated.
  • (8) The results suggest that native opioid-like peptides are present in Squilla mantis and are most likely released from higher molecular weight precursor(s).
  • (9) The pacemaker neurons of the Squilla heart ganglion are innervated from the CNS through three pairs of extrinsic nerves.
  • (10) The pyloric constrictor muscles of the stomach in Squilla can generate spikes by synaptic activation via the motor nerve from the stomatogastric ganglion.
